Re: Using IPCS ACTIVE and alt ASID to display extended private storage

2019-01-31 Thread Binyamin Dissen
What it means is that the storage was in a task that went away. When you
split, it is using the storage again.

IPCS does not display unallocated virtual pages (as they do not really exist).

That implies that you have successfully defined BLSACTV.ADDRSPAC.

Is it possible that the address you are looking for is not currently
allocated? It would be best to take a dump (use the DUMP command) and see if
it is allocated. I would like to see the screen which just shows part of

Is it possible that the storage you expect to find was freed due to the abend?
The SVCDUMP would be a real time trap, while using IPCS ACTIVE is somewhat
later.

At any rate, try displaying X'5000' in the target address space and see what
it shows you. If it skips all the way to CSA, that would imply that the RACF
resources were not properly defined or activated.

  IPCS will schedule an SRB to the address space if necessary.
But that is not often necessary.  z/OS does not physically 
swap address spaces to aux anymore.  So the only time the ASTE
is invalid is a transient state during TRANSWAP or REALSWAP
while we are doing frame exchanges.

 The work I did was to avoid large numbers of anticipated 0C4
abends while IPCS was working its way through large unallocated
storage areas.  This had been a long-standing issue, and I 
decided that in the long run, I might end up spending less time 
fixing it than I was spending explaining why it performed so
badly.

  These subcommand/Verbexits were written before IPCS supported
accessing active storage in other address spaces and system key
fetch protected storage.  Since they knew they needed to do
that, and it would fail in ACTIVE, they helpfully went out of 
their way to check for ACTIVE and issue a message saying that 
ACTIVE was not supported, and then gave up.  So I just had 
to remove the "helpful" code. 
 
> Thanks very much for doing this work. I don't remember it being

  It probably wasn't advertised, because it wasn't a normal
line item in the release plan.  I did it myself for my
own benefit as a heavy IPCS user, and you are just fortunate
to have some of the same needs that I have.

How does it behave if the target address space is swapped out? (Could
this be the problem the OP is now experiencing after having set up the
RACF authorization?) Surely IPCS won't swap the address space in just
for this...?

I think there must've been work done even earlier; some releases ago
ACTIVE performance was appalling, but it's been generally fine in
recent years.

I am intrigued that subcommands/Verbexits need to know anything about
this aspect of the IPCS environment. How do those that (still) don't

I think that the only tool that will let you do that is zXDC. 

I have used IPCS “Active” but only to work on a system problem involving common 
storage (not specifically CSA). 

But there I was effectively in read only mode.

Did you set up the RACF permissions?

Should you use the mailblocks package and expect a response from me,
you should preauthorize the dissensoftware.com domain.

I very rarely bother responding to challenge/response systems,
especially those from irresponsible companies.

I don't know of one, and I see significant issues in implementing it. You might 
try an RFE, I doubt that IBM will do it.

Subject: Using IPCS ACTIVE and alt ASID to display extended private storage

I'm trying to debug TSO process on USERA by using IPCS from USERB by specifying 
ACTIVE and ASID(x'USERA's asid').

An address I need to display is in USERA's extended private area, but LOC is 
only working up to the top of the extended CSA.  LOC for any extended private 
address results in "1AC0.:_.--Storage not available".

Is there a command or setting somewhere that I can change to allow me to view 
the extended private area of another user?

TIA,
Wendell

Using IPCS ACTIVE and alt ASID to display extended private storage

2019-01-28 Thread Wendell Lovewell
I'm trying to debug TSO process on USERA by using IPCS from USERB by specifying 
ACTIVE and ASID(x'USERA's asid').

An address I need to display is in USERA's extended private area, but LOC is 
only working up to the top of the extended CSA.  LOC for any extended private 
address results in "1AC0.:_.--Storage not available".

Is there a command or setting somewhere that I can change to allow me to view 
the extended private area of another user?

TIA, 
Wendell
